Book Reviews of Junie B., First Grader: Boo...and I Mean It! (Junie B. Jones, No. 24)
Book Review: It's Halloween Again!
Summary: 5 Stars
It is getting close to Halloween, and I wanted to review another Halloween book. I read this book a few years ago, but I re-read it a few days ago so that I could properly review it. This is not an adult book - it is a children's chapter book. But adults are allowed to read children's chapter books, and so are children. Therefore, this cute little Halloween book that I rated 5 stars can be read by anyone - child, teen, adult.
In this book, it is getting close to Halloween, and Junie B. Jones is getting a little frightened. Someone told her 5 secrets about Halloween. I can't tell you what those secrets are - I don't wan to ruin this book.
Her mom takes her shopping for a Halloween costume. Junie B. doesn't want to go - - she's frightened about Halloween and those 5 secrets. But she decides on the costume she wants, and there is a very good reason for that costume (but I can't tell you what the reason is).
Junie B. gets in that costume and her mom takes her trick-or-treating. Junie B. is determined to scare people (other trick-or-treaters or just anyone). Will she succeed in doing so?
The book has a happy ending. She gets what she wants at the end of the book. I so badly want to tell you what it is, but that would ruin it for you.
If you have a child, or even a teen, and if they enjoy the atmosphere of Halloween, they would probably like this book. And you might like it, too.
Summary of Junie B., First Grader: Boo...and I Mean It! (Junie B. Jones, No. 24)
Halloween with Junie B. has got to be a scream! Get ready for a ?Halloweenie? adventure with the world?s funniest first grader!?Despite Junie B.?s ascent to the rigors of first grade, Park?s feisty, funny heroine retains her trademark use of language, mirthful malapropisms, and essential larger-than-life personality.??Kirkus Reviews
?First grade offers a whole year of exciting possibilities for Junie B. . . . As always, Park is in touch with what kids know and how they feel.??School Library Journal
From the Hardcover edition.
In the 24th installment of Barbara Park's Junie B. Jones series of illustrated early chapter books, Boo... And I Mean It!, the precocious first grader is worried about Halloween--with good reason. Paulie Allen Puffer has given her five good reasons, in fact, not least of which is that real witches and monsters go trick-or-treating on Halloween (no costumes necessary); if you carve pumpkins with pointy teeth, they will bite your feet; and...shhh...candy corn isn't really corn. Junie B. goes to great lengths to avoid trick-or-treating altogether, but she finally decides that if she dresses up like Squirty the Clown (a disturbing circus clown who terrified her grandmother by chasing her with a seltzer bottle and making her wear an "unattractive balloon hat"), even the most horrific witches and monsters will be scared off. As ever, her way of expressing herself "I did a groan" and "Chills came on my arms" is grammatically unique, but as you get to know her, more endearing than alarming. Children who have mixed feelings about Halloween festivities will relate to Junie B.'s fears, and they'll be relieved when Halloween passes without a monster attack or pumpkin bite, just a delicious bag of 100% candy. (Ages 4 to 8) --Karin Snelson
